- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $470,539 over a 3-year period from Sep 1, 2024 to Aug 31, 2027 to The Pennsylvania State University to conduct collaborative research on extratropical storm track dynamics. The primary objectives are to: Demonstrate linkages between tropical deep convection, planetary-scale stationary wave activity, temperature gradients, and extratropical storm track activity. Identify the physical...
- This $148,477 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports a collaborative research project at Pennsylvania State University. The project explores how scientific messages about environmental adaptation shape people's decisions, especially when their beliefs about the environment, politics, and other issues are closely connected. The research aims to clarify how these choices can unintentionally...
- The Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) received a three-year, $298,200 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research studying carbon injection and silicate weathering feedback during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum. Through May 2023 to April 2026, Penn State will quantify carbon dioxide addition to the ocean-atmosphere system during this ancient warming event and model how the Earth system responded, including...
- The Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) received a $302,474 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) on June 1, 2021 to support research titled "Collaborative Research: Fire, Ecosystem, and Landscape Dynamics in Afroalpine Environments in a Warmer World." The award will fund research through May 31, 2024 under the NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the nation's scientific...
- The Pennsylvania State University received a $884,875 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences under the NSF Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will fund a 3-year collaborative research project to study how the chemistry of ice nucleating particles impacts the ice nucleation process and subsequent ice crystal growth. The research involves concurrent laboratory experiments and modeling work to characterize ice...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Office of International Science and Engineering, CFDA 47.079, provides $280,388 to The Pennsylvania State University from June 1, 2023 through May 31, 2026. The award supports collaborative research between Penn State, the American Museum of Natural History, and University of Cape Coast in Ghana to study morphological adaptations of dragonflies to environmental gradients. Eighteen U.S. students will conduct fieldwork, museum studies,...
The Pennsylvania State University received a $300,000 project grant award from the National Science Foundation Office of International Science and Engineering under the Office of International Science and Engineering federal grant program (CFDA 47.079). The three-year award, made on September 1, 2021 and concluding on August 31, 2024, will support the IRES TRACK I: Manifestations of Climate Change in Extreme Events project. This project aims to enable the U.S. to maintain leadership in the global scientific community by strengthening international partnerships to advance scientific discovery and contribute to the scientific strength and welfare of the Nation, as outlined in the program description. Specifically, the university will research manifestations of climate change in extreme events through international collaboration, as detailed in the project title. The funding will allow Penn State researchers to engage in scientific work with global partners to further understanding of climate change impacts.
